Aquariums have been giving my computer some serious lag. :T Once again reminding me that I need a new video card. I just wish there wasn't a long list of things I need before that.
a~chan Haha yeah I love my dk, though she's unholy. I already have a pally tank but I know what you mean. Tanking = teh awesome sauce. 3nodding Though my main is my disc priest, she's the one I normally raid on. Our guild suffers from a shortage of competent healers. rolleyes Someday I hope to tank more than 10 man Naxx raids or heroic OS/Vault runs but that probably won't happen unless my guild leader gets a head injury and forgets about the priest. xd And thanks, I don't think I need to have you smack Val around, I mean unless you really want to, then by all means go for it! Lol <3
Heh heh... unholy tanking is the best way to tank. Forget frost, unholy is SO much more fun. I don't have to worry about putting out a lot of damage... just making sure whatever we're fighting hates me more than the rest of the group. After a rogue, mage, shaman, and hunter, it's a BIG breath of fresh air.
Well, I'll just keep it in mind, then. Not that I ever really need a reason, but yeah, sometimes good to have one, just in case.
Work is driving me nuts. I was hired in to help while one woman was on maternity leave, at the same time as this other guy. Once she came back, the other guy had ******** up enough and was fired. Then another guy, who had been there a lot longer, also ******** up, so now he's gone. Adding to that, now another coworker is off on maternity leave, as well as my manager being on vacation for the next 2 weeks. (She just got back from a vacation three weeks ago.) So there are very few people to cover shifts, and since I'm probably one of the better guys they've got, I'm pulling insane hours.
Look. I like the hours because they make my paychecks larger... but hire someone else already, damnit! Or at least give me some type of raise. Just because I know the most about the media/electronics department and earn the least due to being the newest guy there, doesn't mean I should be getting the most hours. Cost effective; bad business. Cut me some slack.

Cost effective; bad business. Cut me some slack. I agree, if I were ever to tank with my dk I'd definitely go the unholy route. It's tons of fun. And I'm sure after all that dps it is nice to try something totally different. =] I like to pew pew sometimes but I like to heal or tank much more. :3
Sorry about your overloaded working hun. I know how that feels, especially when you can always use the monies but when you start to burn out it won't seem as important. Just remember to take good care of yourself. 3nodding heart
@Pyre: Grats on the monies hunnies! Tee hee I made a terrible funny! gonk redface heart
@Sora: Hiiiiiiiiiiiiii you! <33333
Ugh this damn weather drives me nuts! It's so damn sticky and hot I can't sleep and end up surfing the net all night instead of sleeping. I'm so gonna be regretting this in about an hour or so... scream gonk crying

I now have an 80 DK Orc. ninja Back on Frostwolf, baby!
It's Dual Talented... Unholy and...
Unholy.
LOLWUT?
I have an Unholy PVP Spec, and a Raiding Spec. Pretty much invert what I was using. Unholy PVP Spec has all the survival crap+PVP Orientated things (Death Grip, Anti Magic Shell/Zone, Etc.) with Talents going into Blood for Rune Tap and its Upgrade.
The Raiding Spec goes into all the auto attacks and other damage dealing things (+20% Shadow Dmg on Auto Attacks, 30% chance to do that one attack... etc.), going into Frost for increased auto attack speed + frost/shadow dmg increase, with more runic power, etc.
I only have T8 Gloves from Raiding, cause I've only really go into a couple so far... and it's all been VOA. lololol?

Coincidentally, I have also been having a blast leveling up a resto druid.
When Val and I had a leveling group, I loved standing in the back and clicking on all the pretty colors grid was throwing at me. Since it was for leveling and having fun, neither of us was on our 80's, to be in line with the rest of the group. Which meant we pretty much had no tanks. (Though seriously, with 3 DKs, who needs a tank?) Often heard over vent: "Alright, we must be doing too good. The tree stopped healing and is punching the boss..."
And my DK is Un/Un, too. kek. Unholy tank/unholy pvp. And yes, there has been the occasional "s**t, s**t, why are we dead?!" "Oops, sorry guys... forgot I was in WSG earlier."
Now, if everyone else hasn't already fled the dorkfest... Yeah, I'm remembering to take care of myself. Eating right, sleeping (relatively) well... I could still use a bit of sun... but it never sticks. Ah well.
I've also been tank tapping and such in the AQ forum... hoping to get a couple dozen more favorable ratings in the arena. I'm so close! I can almost taste it! If anyone catches me glowing, please feel free to PM me!

I've been thinking about leveling my drood, but doubt I'd go resto unless I can find someone to be my meat shield. ninja That and kitty dps is just so much fun. whee And personally, I like calling you guys celery instead of trees. ninja xp I never did use grid, healbot, or anything like that, I've always been more a hotkey/macro/clicky type gal. I do have decursive now though, makes my life a hell of a lot easier, but I actually end up using it more often on my tank than my healer lol...either way, I'm afraid to have too many addons because my laptop is about to explode and die on me already and I lag something fierce in 25 man raids so I tend to try to keep the addons down to the bare min required for raiding.
And glad to hear you're eating/sleeping/yadda yadda Xan, though the sun thing, well hey, don't you know sun is bad for you anyways?! =p Oh and I voted and rated your avi. heart

Sevi Rais I don't watch VH1, so maybe that's the problem....or perhaps this problem is just pervasive everywhere I go. :/ I wish I saw Labyrinth when I was a kid so I can understand why everyone loves it. I saw it when I was....22? My friend was showing "scary movies" that she use to grow up with and I really didn't care for Labyrinth, though Bowie and his hair were awesome. haha Did not care for the dancing baby scene. heh Another scary movie was "A Troll in Central Park" which my friend's mom described as being "anti-masculine." She's totally right --- it is.
You have to be a kid to get it? It's the classic Hades/Persephone story... with puppets!
